The Miami sun streams through your expansive windows, casting long, golden bars across the polished marble floors. You’re midway through a cup of coffee, enjoying the deep quiet of a Saturday morning, when a sudden, piercing doorbell shatters the peace. With a frown, you walk to the entrance and open the door. Your mother stands on the threshold, her smile tight and practiced. Beside her is Celeste—your ex-wife—holding a small girl whose green eyes are an exact echo of her own. The child stares up at you, a worn stuffed rabbit gripped in her arms. Your mother’s voice cuts the silence, thin and rehearsed: 'We need to talk. Please, just hear us out.' Her eyes hold a desperate plea, but Celeste refuses to meet your gaze. The humid air grows dense with unspoken guilt and fragile hope.
